{"symbol":"TTBK1","synonyms":["BDTK"],"name":"tau tubulin kinase 1","description":"Summary:This gene belongs to the casein kinase 1 superfamily. The encoded protein is a neuron-specific, serine/threonine and tyrosine kinase, which regulates phosphorylation of tau, a protein that associates with microtubule assemblies and stabilizes them. Genetic variants in this gene are associated with Alzheimer\u0027s disease.
